We were in Lucban for the holiday. Jeff's family has this thing of dragging me into wherever they will go. Which I totally love. I really like the feeling that they like me that much because they want to bring me to their family gatherings.

Yesterday, we brought Jeff's 95-year-old grandmother to a foster home. It was a heartbreaking moment for everyone. Nanay lives with his youngest son, Tito Dan, who died last July. Her remaining kids decided that it will be best to take her to a foster home. We also went to Tita Nadjie's mom's wake. She is Jeff's mom's high school friend and we're getting her as one of the principal sponsors for our wedding. I know it's not the right occasion to do the 'pamanhikan' with her, but it's the only time we have.

We went home Tuesday morning. We arrived around lunch so we decided to eat in Cibo in Alabang Town Center.

Jeff is a self-proclaimed basketball junkie. Make that Ateneo basketball junkie. He's been doing this for the past ten or eleven years. And today is Ateneo vs. LaSalle Round 2. You think he'll miss the game? Of course not. Araneta was so packed. So as the parking lots. There are blues and greens everywhere. Ateneo beat LaSalle. 81-72. Salva was awesome. Really.

Once in a while, Jeff works in Makati, especially when he needs to conduct training and presentations. Today is one of those days. We took advantage of this and met up for lunch. He asked me where I want to eat. I suggested Bonchon (again) but he said it's packed. So we settled for the not so packed Omakase.

The food was great as Jeff and I really love Japanese food but the service is kinda slow. Maybe it's because there's so many people having their lunch in there or I'm just too hungry. Either way, I think their customer service needs a little polishing. Also, Jeff ordered Uni Sushi but they served Uni Sashimi. He had to wait before the right order was given to him. When we billed out, it took them a while to give us our bill. Frustrating.

Jeff's uni sushi. I'm really not gonna eat this, ever.

Today I was scheduled to visit our clinic in Festival Mall. I came around lunch so I went to see Jeff first to have lunch with him. I got my first salary at work and I told him I'm going to treat him for lunch. We went to Alabang Town Center and found this Japanese restaurant, Tempura Japanese Grill. We later found out that they have 50% discount on their tempura. Sweet!

Tempura monsters.

I've tried Happy Lemon a couple of times already but Jeff hasn't. So today, just before we went to Travis' birthday, we passed by Eastwood Libis to grab my favorite Cocoa with Rock Salt and Cheese. Yummy!

Oh hi there, dorks!
